It’s here! Thank you all for your patience and your kind asks and comments since the first demo version was posted. This update contains a bunch of new story content as well as some tweaks, both large and small, to existing content.

This update will break existing saves, so make sure you start fresh!

Please let me know if you encounter any bugs/typos/etc! A description and/or screenshot of the issue and what happened just before you ran into it is super helpful for me to locate issues and get them fixed! There’s also a little survey (linked at the end of the demo and HERE in case you missed it) just to satisfy my own curiosity!

As of now, my plan is for Talon’s End to always be free to play. If you would have paid/donated to play TE and are able, please instead donate to Palestinian or Sudanese causes or your local abortion or mutual aid fund!

A general, lightly spoiler-y list of new/updated stuff is below.

New stuff!

• Super secret RO #2 is here! You can romance/befriend them independently of Hawk or as part of a poly triad. (No additional ROs after this–just the two!)
• Lots of new story content!
• A few “achievements” for doing weird/obscure things
• Early version of the profile page (more to be added)
• Early version of the codex/journal page (lots more to be added)

Updated stuff!

• New icons for special choices
• Updated intro/CWs for new UI and content
